Default S&B Cold Air

Anyone have any experience, thoughts on these? One of my local performance shops is pushing this intake vs. the K&N.

Save your money and go with the 14x3. Its about the best thing in my opinion to do for those trucks and definitely the most cost effective. Filter $50, allthread $5, throttlebody spacer used ones are cheap. Works great.

14x3 you get the most bang for the buck and it will out preform any cai at wot but when it comes to daily driving stock box or closed CIA is the way to go. I get better mpgs with a stock intake vs 14x3
